Ukrainian forces strike Russian Pantsir-S2, command posts and drone launch sites
Ukraine’s military struck a Russian Pantsir-S2 air defense system in Bryansk Oblast and several military targets in occupied Ukraine on Sept. 27 and overnight into Sept. 28, the General Staff said.
Russian drones struck central Kyiv on Sept. 28, as Moscow's non-stop bombardment of the Ukrainian capital persists. Mayor Vitalii Klitschko reported Russian drones hitting non-residential buildings in the Obolonskyi, Darnytskyi, and Shevchenkivskyi districts. Smoke was seen rising from multiple locations across the city center, according to Kyiv Independent reporters.
The strikes come just weeks after a Russian attack on Sept. 27 killed two people and injured four others near the Stolichny food market. Air defense systems were active throughout the day, with blasts and explosions keeping the city in a heightened alert for nine hours. Nine additional people were injured during the day's attacks, with six hospitalized, including a child.
